markos Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Told you so Dan. Matt is one of the Top 10 lifters in Oz Spending money getting taught by a proper strength coach is the best thing you can do if you are serious about improving your lifts. Look forward to reading about your progress Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/352/#findComment-6887811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Nice work Dan, much better when someone shows you how to do it than trying to learn off the net/vids.

No Crust Racing Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 To say I was surprised is an understatement. Not that I doubted what you were saying Markos, moreso that I doubted I could do it given what I thought of my back and ankle. Based on how I feel today, my back and ankle must be stronger than I gave them credit for. Initially my goal for this year, as in year starting October when I busted my leg, was to squat and DL BW for reps and get those areas more balanced with the bench. I'm confident I can do that and will have to pick some new goals for the remainder of the year.

Trozzle Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Really good to hear the session was worth it Dan! Good shit Similarly, even without the coaching, I was blown away when I managed to pull 175kg at ~72kg body weight. Nothing compared to the PTC lifters, but I just didn't think it was really possible to do with remotely decent form at my size.

No Crust Racing Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 (edited) So realistically, the goal for me should be like 200 or more 0_0 I'm going to need more plates... (I am not aiming that high lol) Edited June 12, 2013 by ActionDan Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/352/#findComment-6888318 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Go as high as you want man; it's about you, not impressing others or meeting their expectations. People will always be more concerned with their own lifts than others anyway. Improvement can be addictive though.

No Crust Racing Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Well I need to at least try and not be weaker than Markos' girls, so that's a fair way off where I am lol.

Trozzle Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I've had 1x regular skim flat white (320ml total, 2 shots espresso) and 1x jumbo skim flat white (470ml total, 3 shots espresso), and a multivitamin. Apparently that comes to somewhere around 245 cal.

Trozzle Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 You never asked why lol Because I like to do IF every now and then.

No Crust Racing Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 C'mon man, lack of food is affecting you. I said "At all? wtf? " There's two question marks in there.. Get on board Well you're forked in the head my friend. Going a day without eating is just plain wrong. Are you some kind of masochist?

Get on board Well you're forked in the head my friend. Going a day without eating is just plain wrong. Are you some kind of masochist? Please tell me you're only kidding and you're not in just as much denial about human nutrition and dieting methods as Birds is lol I'd argue being overweight by eating complete shit is a better definition of being masochistic. Hell, even just eating "bad" food like your donuts is worse. Going a day without eating is only good for you, short of being lethargic and grumpy.

No Crust Racing Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 lol nah you're missing the point entirely. I enjoy eating food, not doing it is painful, to do that intentionally is the definition of masochism. I didn't say anything about it being good or bad nutritionally, I give no f**ks for that. I'm a simple man Troy, food good, no food bad. Troy not eat food? Bad Troy.
